97F045C6-2A11-4A62-BAD3-779B282C0A06.jpeg I tested a battery overnight at home and it worked well. Then I went camping in the Santa Cruz mountains and it lasted through a 3 hour nap and a 12 hour night at 9 cm H2O, so basically 2 nights. Yes, we were exceptionally lazy after climbing a mountain all...

Got it working! Gonna wear it tonight and use it tomorrow. Thanks for the instructions!

Hmmmm... on a first attempt the meter powers up and says 12.66 volts but the meter shuts down/the Z1 doesn’t come on when I plug it in. Think I’ll have to test/redo the connection between the voltage regulator and the CPAP...

@mech18 Thanks, I'm going to try to reproduce this setup.

@CapnLoki I'm getting a travel CPAP that can use DC power, so I haven't decided which one. Something light and cost effective. My pressure is 11cm. Thanks for the link!

@Hopeful50 Which Maxoak? How heavy?

Note: Solar panels are not likely to work in the Highlands of Scotland so I'm ok with carrying two light batteries and limiting use to 6 hours a night. What is the best setup (travel CPAP, battery(s), DC adaptor) for a weeklong trek where I use a DC CPAP on a battery each night? There are so many op...

Maybe I'll try another full face. What do you recommend?

I still don't feel well rested after sleeping. I don't know how much of this is from leaks. I have a ton of leaks but no apnea/hypopneas.

I aspirate about once a week. Full face masks feel like death when this happens.

Mask leaks are getting better... he showed me how to get it on right. Mouth leak is the biggest unresolved issue. I've tried taping, but it goes straight into my belly which is amusing but not altogether fun. I tried a mouth guard and that sort of worked. I've tried chin straps, including a custom m...

So, I ended up getting oximetry levels and even a home halter monitor reading while sleeping and while having an episode and it was all normal most of the time (aside from my pulse hitting 130). But once my oxygen levels crashed while standing in the kitchen... it hit 43 and I almost hit the floor. ...

Wearing my oximeter around and... It hits 85 while laying down or standing. This is what is happening at night.

Oxygen saturation didn't go below 94. Guess I don't need oxygen.

I do have a lot of apnea/hypopnia some nights. Will keep monitoring and hold off on oxygen.

I've got a recording oximeter, I'll check the data tomorrow.

I know what my O2 is. It drops when I have apneas from leakage, but not below 90.
